Thank you, Norman. Yes, this is a rarity, and Noseda is the first conductor of renown to tackle it since Campanini (d. 1919). Sonya Yoncheva is always compelling, George Petean dependable, and the new tenor Giorgi Sturua will be taking on his biggest role yet. Definitely worth a listen.
Ah, but Cole Porter got there first!!
